Sink tip or sinking lines, single or double hand doesn't matter...I always use a short leader to keep the fly as close to the depth that my line is working. Usually a 2-3' butt section of 20# mono, and doulble surgeon knot another 2-3' of my tippet of choice. For salmon I usually use either 10# or 12# Maxima Ultra Green for tippet.
Leader Question
Having just returned from Kitimat and lost a couple nice chinook practising long distance C & R, what type/size leader would you use for chinook? Specifically, fishing a 10/11 15 ft Pacific Bay Professional, on a low vis flow (12 to 18 inch vis), 10 to 15 feet of heavy sinking head in fast water. Just curious.
Thanks,
Sparky
